A friend of mine found this tooth on the Brazos River and wanted me to try for an id. I have some ideas, but don't want to influence opinions. It measures 1 5/8 inches long and the crown length is 9/16in. Thanks!

I believe this is a horse tooth from a very old individual, worn down so far that it went past the crown (making this a half of a tooth).

Thanks y'all! That was my first thought. Second thought was a cone from broken bison molar. I think senile horse is more likely.
